What better way to see the beautiful island of Kauai than by air, sea and land. I imagine that they are all 
spectacular in their own way. Helicopter and airplane tours, sea kayaking and boat tours and biking Kauai are just some of the ways to see this amazing island.
Taking a helicopter or airplane ride can let you experience the beauty of Kauai without lifting a finger or making a step in the rugged terrain. Air Kauai Helicopter Tours flies over 10 hot spots on their daily tours. They offer a deluxe 1-Hour Tour that takes you all over the island highlighting the Waimea Canyon which is known as the “Grand Canyon” of the Pacific and Mt. Wai’ ale’ ale Crater which is actually the wettest place on Earth averaging 420 inches a year! The famed NaPali Coast and the Jurassic Park Falls are also part of the tour.
Seeing Kauai from a boat or kayak is also a wonderful way to see the hugeness of Kauai’s coastline. Kauai Sea Tours offers catamaran as well as zodiac boat tours. The guides are educated on the local wildlife, marine life, conservation and history so that you get a full view of Kauai’s environment and existence. One can go snorkeling, whale watching and enjoy sunset cruises along the NaPali coast with Kauai Sea Tours.
Discovering Kauai on a bike allows one to be up close and personal with the island and its’ environment. You can pretty much ride on flat roads around the island or choose to mountain bike easy, moderate or steep terrain. Coconut Coasters is a bike rental company that specializes in biking from Baby Beach to Kealia Beach on what is known as the Coconut Coast. You can rent a classic cruiser with tandem bike attachments or kid carriers so that the whole family can enjoy the ride.
All of these activities can be done while staying at a number of places on the island. Whether it’s a luxury vacation rental on the Poipu coast that you are seeking or a rustic inland villa off the beaten path Kauai 
enjoys less people and more of Mother Nature.
So, the next time you are planning to go to the Hawaiian Islands, try to make time to get to Kauai where the Grand Canyon meets the Pacific.

A piece of heaven on earth is all I can say about it. I`ve been here a few years ago but I didn`t manage to see the Grand Canyon back then. Yet, we returned here last year with a larger group of tourists, for a few days, and I fulfilled my wish. It`s so well-worthy reaching it, believe me. Plus, accommodation is great, hotels on the beach in Hawaii are dreamy. You won`t regret it.

If you’re visiting Hawaii don’t forget Kailua-Kona.There are some fantastic sites such as Mauna Kea or Manini’owali Beach.Not to say that the Kailua Kona hotels are affordable and have some great views.

I think I just found my destination for this summer vacation. Inspiration walked me through the Internet and I happily found this article. Looking forward to book the plane tickets, obtain the travel insurance for my family, pack bags and we`re ready to go. I`ll be back with stories about our journey.

We needed a cheap airport parking hotel for our last minute vacation to Kauai. The price was right and we were pleasantly surprised at the quality – the hotels are clean, tastefully decorated and are close to everything.We stayed at a hotel really close to the beach.

The Kauai hotels must offer an amazing view.I dream of having my wedding there. Gentle island breezes, emerald-colored cliffs and clear blue skies make Kauai the perfect place to celebrate an intimate Hawaiian wedding.
